The Viavi ALT-8000 is the world’s first and only RF-based portable radio altimeter flight-line test set. The ALT-8000 tests from the TX/RX antennas to the indicator in the cockpit, allowing the operator to replicate in-flight conditions, and isolate a bad component of the installed system.
Features
- Remote control interface (Ethernet)
- Direct-connect to UUT T/R or to installed system via antenna couplers
- Programmable multi-leg climb/descend profiles
- Software updates downloaded via the website
- Parametric measurements of TX power / frequency / pulse width / FM deviation /PRF
Benefits
- Battery operation of 4 hours plus between recharges
- Test pulse radio altimeters (non-pulse compression types)
- Create profiles to control dynamic altitude simulations
- Test FMCW radio altimeters including analog
- Radio-metric RF loop test allows TX, RX, antenna or feeder faults to be identified
